    Now you are the epitome of why I come to TH-cam...to learn! Concise, clear, spoken at a normal speed (in a non-robotic voice) at the correct volume, without insane music blaring. I enjoy putting videos such as yours on half my screen, and step by step, follow your instructions on the other half. A big THANKS for all your help.

      Agreed Larry. I hate coming here looking for lessons and having to listen to useless personal stories before getting to what is needed.

    This by far is the most comprehensive youtube tutorial about the junk files and free spacing. There are bunch of utility software out there which can get the job done partially acceptable but what a user can do to maintain the system would be much more harmless and efficient.

    Browser Cache Shortcut:
    For most browsers, open the browser and then use the Ctrl-Shift-Del keyboard shortcut to open the dialog to clear the cache.

    And all this time I thought the proper syntax for flushing my DNS was
    “ipconfig /flushdns”, space between. It still works and funny I always thought the way you showed would never work lol. I do believe it’s subscribe time. Thanx, take care everyone, and stay real.

    I'm on Task Manager at the moment & there are sections called committed & cached under Memory. I am currently trying to figure out how to lower these values if because 12.8/28.5GBs for committed & 8.4GBs for cached seems too high. I suspect this may have to with Firefox because I just save a bunch of tabs between two active windows of FF. Any advice would be appreciated.

    I have an old laptop that has win 7 on it. I would like to use it just for games now, nothing else. How do I clean out the hard drive of everything that has been previously loaded, and what do I leave only for basic online sometimes games. I am trying to do this so that I can maximise the about of space and power I have to use exclusively for games.

    • @Newgrfx321
      @Newgrfx321 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      ronfrew start your computer in safe mode then restore to factory settings, don’t save files and select clean the drive. This will wipe your hard drive but get it back up and running. There are many step by step tutorials about this process here on TH-cam.

    • @Newgrfx321
